Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
I am using the new Intel driver xserver-xorg-video-intel from Ubuntu Feisty
repository since the i810 one doesn't support my external monitor with a
resolution of 1680x1050. With the new driver the external works fine except of
not shutting down the LFP but this is no real problem.
The problem is if the external monitor isn't connected the Intel driver shows
the correct resolution of 1366x768 in gdm but after login X crashes/restarts. I
think it has something to to with the combination Intel driver and screen
resolution but this doesn't happen with the original i810 driver so it isn't
only a problem of screen resolution or X.
Even if I use the old i810 driver, set screen resolution in Gnome to 1366x768,
logout , install the new Intel driver again and restart gdm I got the same
problem. So it is more likely a driver problem.
